"&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;This is the most common symptom and often the only one. These are &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/swollen-lymph-glands-2252581&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;enlarged lymph nodes&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;. Most people first notice these lumps while bathing or changing, or they may be first felt by your partner. &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/swollen-lymph-glands-2252581&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Enlarged nodes are not always a sign of lymphoma.&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Sometimes there are no symptoms at first, but when symptoms are present, the most common symptom of Hodgkin disease is an enlarged lymph node. Usually the lump is not painful, but sometimes it may become painful after drinking alcohol.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Cancers other than lymphoma can also cause swollen lymph nodes. And, it should be noted that most cases of enlarged lymph nodes are due to other things, such as infection, rather than cancer. This is especially true in children. Enlarged nodes due to infection generally return to their normal size a couple of weeks or months after the infection clears.\u00A0 It is best, however, to see your doctor about enlarged lymph nodes so that a cause can be found and treatment begun, if needed.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Weight loss usually occurs rapidly for no known reason. Often an individual can lose ten to fifteen pounds over a couple of months.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/fever-as-a-cancer-symptom-2252420&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Fever&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; that is continuous or occurs intermittently over a period of time and doesn&amp;amp;#39;t seem related to a chest or urinary infection is a good sign that you should consult a doctor. Fever that is related to node swellings occurs commonly with infections, and many &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/leukemia-and-lymphoma-advocacy-roundup-2252341&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;lymphomas are often mistaken for infections&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; at the early stage. Occasionally, in those affected by &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/hodgkin-lymphoma-4013744&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Hodgkin lymphoma&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, a characteristic fever called &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/what-is-pel-ebstein-fever-2252416&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;4&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Pel-Ebstein fever&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; occurs.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;This unique situation may be quite bothersome. You may wake up at night drenched in sweat without any apparent reason.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Another unique situation, full-body itching is related to the secretion of some special chemicals from the lymphoma cells.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;As lymphomas spread within your body and grow, many individuals feel a considerable loss of their appetite, further accelerating weight loss. Weight loss of more than 10% is one of the &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/what-are-b-symptoms-2252414&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;B-symptoms of lymphoma&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;As cancer cells are always growing, they use up more of the body&amp;amp;#39;s nutrients, leaving the body with less. This makes you feel weaker, as does hypercalcemia, which can accompany symptoms.\u00A0The weakness may also be caused by\u00A0anemia\u00A0if the lymphoma is &amp;lt;a data-inlink=&amp;quot;lRZU_E1C6czhY8PTKFs72w&amp;amp;#61;&amp;amp;#61;&amp;quot; href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/why-is-a-bone-marrow-test-performed-2252454&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;occupying the bone&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; marrow where red blood cells are produced.\u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Rarely, when a lymphoma in the neck or chest grows very large, it may block the flow of some vessels and lead to a swelling of the face and neck along with a feeling of breathlessness.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;As lymphomas can occur in any organ, may give rise to some unusual symptoms as well. A lymphoma in the stomach can cause pain in the abdomen, and a lymphoma in the brain can cause headaches or leg weakness.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;If you experience several of these symptoms or feel at all concerned that you might have lymphoma, see your doctor. Only a medical professional can properly diagnose the cause of your symptoms.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
